This page from Dallas College showcases "writing outwardly" as i places emphasis on students by saying exactly what they offer. May that be certificates, degrees, dual credit, and transfer credits. Dallas College also brings attention to career opportunities and possible developments towards that at their institution. They also have a section on community, and academic partnerships further pushing forth benefits they offer.
When it comes to "not burying the lead," UTD's page has a section titled "Take a Tour" which is bolded and draws attention to the link it directs you to. It is simple, not too worldy and its highlighted nature effectively draws the audience in.
For "not saying too much" Plain Langauge's homepage exemplifies this principle well. It cuts to the chase by telling the audience their mission and who they are. Any links on this aoge are slightly bolded with images which keeps the audience interested without giving too much away.
This page on Collin College's website is a strong example of "call to action." The buttons are big and bold that are a different color from the rest, and have a border box around them to bring the viewers attention to it. The arrow icon also shows the button will take you to another page. All these visual indicators help the call to action to be highly prominent.
